Abstract
Given a quartic Galois extension of number fields and a Hopf-Galois structure on , we study the freeness of the ring of integers as module over the associated order in . For the classical Galois structure , we know by Leopoldt's theorem that is -free. If is cyclic, it admits a unique non-classical Hopf-Galois structure, whereas if it is biquadratic, it admits three such Hopf-Galois structures. In both cases, we obtain that freeness depends on the solvability in of certain generalized Pell equations. We shall translate some results on Pell equations into results on the -freeness of .
